Since changing my Internet Archive account e-mail address, I no longer have access to edit my uploads. What gives?

Your email address is your username, and how you authenticate to edit your shows.

However, be aware that if you change the email address for your account, you will no longer be able to "edit" files posted from your old email address. If you would like to have your items' ownership transferred to a new email address, send an email to info AT archive DOT org from your OLD email address (the one you want to get rid of - that's how we know you own the items) and tell us which address you'd like to change it to.
